Speaker 1: I made a decision. I'll pace sunny Sun had on.
I had a vision night.
Speaker 2: What's happening? Everybody? Welcome to for crying out loud.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're posting a little late, but better late than never.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Sorry.
Speaker 2: I had to move Sonny out yesterday on Monday. It
was his very last day in his apartment, and so
I had to fly out Sunday night and then meet
the movers at like because they were taking his stuff
to storage because he's moving into another apartment for next semester.
And uh so they were coming at like eight thirty
in the morning.
Speaker 1: So met went over to.
Speaker 2: Sonny's place and it was so cute because Sonny was
getting really sentimental. Really yeah, I'm like, but then I
think the new places like in a great area, because
the place he's at right now is just kind of
like off It's near the university, but it's kind of
off the beaten Bath. It's like away from a lot
of stuff, and you know, he's a walker, you know,
he likes to walk get his groceries, and you know, well,
the next place there's like there's a supermarket right there.
There's all kinds of stuff, so it's closer to things
but he was like, I kind of like this area better.
He likes the quietness, I think a little bit. But
uh yeah, and you know, I haven't been to Sunny's
apartment and like a long time, and it was just
dust bunnies. I mean you could imagine like one teenage
boy living alone. The bathroom was just oh my god,
and dust bunnies everywhere.
Speaker 1: And he's like, I vacuum.
Speaker 3: Like I was gonna say, does he have a vacuum quean, Yeah,
it's a vacuum, but he doesn't really, you know, he
doesn't dust the proper and I don't seem to like
also get out the cleaning products and like nope, shit down, no, no,
Like you go to an Italian's place, it's messy, it
can be messy, but it's like a clean messy.
Speaker 2: There's no dust bunnies, like they spend days where they
have cleaning days. Or she's like, I deep cleaned the
kitchen today. You know, it's pretty clean compared to like
the teenage boys. You know, the movers are like we
just moved a whole bunch of teenage guys out of there.
He's like, this is nothing, this is nothing. Imagine like
a bunch of guys living together with no cleaning, you
know people. So yeah, but at least, you know, he
did his laundry and change his sheets, but he doesn't
fold his clothes. So there was mounds of clothes that
had to be folded, put in boxes, and put in suitcases.
So it was just a whole long day of like, oh,
you know, when you know and you had a move, right,
you think it's like, oh, it's not that big of
a deal, not a lot, but then when you get
in there, you're like, oh god, there is a lot,
a lot to do. Had one suitcase just filled with
dirty clothes, just filled with dirty clothes just to take
home to wash.
Speaker 1: So I was like, Okay, I don't think it.
Speaker 3: Albe's ever done her laundry one time at her apartment.
Speaker 1: Well really hmm, yeah, he has no choice. But yeah.
Speaker 2: So we get there and the guys that are helping
us are super cool. They're helping us pack up stuff
to put into storage, and I'm like folding clothes and
we spent a whole day. But then he's driving home,
so I was flying home last night. There's only like
one direct flight a day to come home. I mean
I could have got. I could have taken a flight
home direct to lax which is really far from me,
or I could take that one flight a day back
to Burbank, which is like seven minutes from my house.
So the only flight the next day to come home
was not until seven thirty at night, so I had
to like hang out, you know, for the rest of
the day.
Speaker 1: Although we I was at the.
Speaker 2: Apartment until like four o'clock in the afternoon pretty much
because I wanted to clean it and get it all,
you know, situated to give back. But he left mid
morning to drive home with his friend. So we packed
up their car. They left around eleven thirty, and then
I stayed, you know, and cleaned the rest of the day.
Speaker 3: Now, how long a drive is it? So are they
going to get home in one day or they No,
they stopped tonight.
Speaker 2: They stopped last night in Berkeley and stayed at a
like travel lodge, and then they got up this morning
and they're driving back, so they'll be back later this evening.
So they got that, and then so I stayed the
rest of the day, cleaned, got it all spick and span,
like shining back to New turned in his keys.
Speaker 1: It was cute.
Speaker 2: Though, like before he left, I was sitting on his
couch and he's like, can I just sit on the
couch one last time? And I'm like, because the couch
is small, So I got up. I was like okay.
Then I went to his little balcony. He's got a
little tiny balcony. So I stood out there, and then
five minutes later he's like, okay, can I stand on
my balcony one last time?
Speaker 1: He was like, I'll send them Eli. He's like, I'm
gonna miss this place. Yeah, it was cute.
Speaker 2: He had his picture of him and Phil in his
bedroom next to his TV.
Speaker 1: It was really cute.
Speaker 2: And then and then yeah, so then he left and
then I stayed and then yeah, So then I took
the flight home late last night, got in, fell sound
asleep on the airplane, sound asleep, and that's when I
woke up and we were like landing into Burbank, and
I texted you. I'm like, oh, what time tomorrow for
the podcast? And then went home, did some dishes and
then could not fell asleep for a little bit and
then woke up wide awake at like two thirty three
o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1: Couldn't go back to sleep.
Speaker 2: So I had to take like sleeping medicine to go
back to sleep, and then slept until like ten this morning.
So I'm like dead tired and my body is aching.
Oh my god, cause you have like twenty workouts. You know,
he is hard. Moving is hard, and he doesn't have
an elevator and he's on the third floor.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So there was a lot of up and down, up
and down, up and down. The guys did a lot
of it, but you know, I wanted to get him
packed up and ready to get on the road. It
was like, help him get all his stuff in the
car packed up. So yeah, and then also you know, folding,
sitting there and folding and then cleaning after he left.
It was just a lot of physical which I used
muscles I haven't used in a long time. It's like,
so you know that feeling where you feel like you've
been hit with a mac truck the next day, That's
how I feel right now.
Speaker 1: So when will he go back?
Speaker 3: He doesn't have to go back at any certain point, right, No,
he's going back in mid September. Okay, not un till September.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and that'll be another that'll be another going
out unpacking, getting him situated, take all.
Speaker 3: The stuff from storage door, put it in his new plate.
Oh lord, yeah, yeah, won't help him, right, No, I
doubt it.
Speaker 1: I mean he can ask him. But we'll see.
Speaker 3: That's like a weird thing when you have to ask
for when when it's like a known thing that you're
gonna have to move, right, and your parent doesn't go
like I can help you, right, Like you're gonna have
to help Yeah, I'm gonna have to help him.
Speaker 1: So yeah, okay, So and to.
Speaker 3: Tell ya you were going to have to do a
move for her too, But did that already happen or
is that still coming now?
Speaker 2: Well, she's back. I moved her back to.
Speaker 3: Home, right, Okay, then you're gonna have to choose all
her stuff though to her new place.
Speaker 2: Right yeah, but not for a couple of months until
mid August. Okay, but hey we're kind of burying the lead.
Oh yeah, So then last week I guess I said,
I put an offer in a house. They accepted my offer, okay,
And I'm an escrow.
Speaker 3: So so just tell us the story slowed down a
little bit. So you put in the offer, you go
a little super asking to because you heard.
Speaker 1: That there was another offer coming in.
Speaker 2: And so what I found out like the last couple
of days ago, I found out that they so they
accepted my offer because mine came in first, and I
just went a little bit above their asking price. Well,
the other people they went well above the asking price.
Oh so I feel like I got to steal nice.
Speaker 1: That's a great feeling. Yes.
Speaker 2: So then once it got accepted and went into escrow,
it happened fast. There was a lot of like we
need this from you, We need that from you, We
need all this paperwork, we need sign signatures and all
that stuff, which was going on right before I was
leaving to go to Eugene to help Sonny. And so
it's like trying to get all that stuff done. I
already have emails coming in this morning, like more stuff
than we need. Then there was an inspection last week.
Oh already mm hmm on Friday. There's that go spection link. Good.
Now there's ivy that looks really pretty on the outside
of the house. So the ivy is like grown on
the side of the house. It's like that you know, yeah,
that like kind of looks like the East Coast kind
of a house.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: But the thing that I thought about what the IVY is.
When there's ivs, there's rodents. So the house, which was
built in ninety nine, was pretty much like the inspection
came out fine, except for minor things like two trees
in the backyard should be taken out. Sounds like it's
a hit job on them, but they're going to cause
issues eventually, so they should be taken out. But then
the other thing was, is there there's rat droppings.
Speaker 1: In the attic?
Speaker 2: Oh oh, and yeah, and the HVAC needs to be
like flushed out and it needs to be sealed up
the attic, you know, so there needs to be an
exterminator to come out. So and I had a feeling
it was like, you know, that IVY is going to
cause issues, so I might get rid of it eventually,
not right away, but soon.
Speaker 1: So that needs to happen.
Speaker 3: So when something like that happens, all the realtors who
are listening are like, stupid question, But would do you
bother trying to haggle at that point or do you
just go, okay, good enough clothes.
Speaker 2: My agent was like, I'm going to, like, you know,
try and play hardball with them and say like, hey,
you know, can we split the cost or you know whatever,
or give us credit.
Speaker 1: But he said, because they got the other offer.
Speaker 2: Higher, they might just go like too bad and they
might just play hardball back so that I would fall
out at es grow and they can get the higher offer.
They might do something like that. So he's handling it.
So we'll see what happens.
Speaker 3: But luckily it's not either way. That doesn't sound that expensive. No,
it's not to fix. I mean we've I mean, if
it's your house, you'd have an exterminator coming.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, I can't tell you how many
times we've done that, right, Yeah, So it's not. Luckily,
there was not much to you know, have to worry about.
It came back good, The report came back good. There's
more inspections happening this week that I'm going to go
out tomorrow for I think, like I think there's a
pool guys, just to make sure the bull equipment is good.
So just little things like that. So Escro closes on
July thirty first, and then I think my first payment
won't be till September, so then I'll have some like
a couple of weeks to like move, get stuff moved out,
and Wendy says she's coming out.
Speaker 3: Oh wait, your first payment even though Escro closes July. Okay,
so you don't have to pay for August because like you,
that's like included in I think, so, yeah, payment or whatever, right, Okay,
that's good.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Now what are you going to do about the condo?
Are you going to take your time selling.
Speaker 1: I'm going to take my time selling it, but I
am going to put it up for sale. Yeah, okay, Yeah.
Speaker 2: There's a few things that I want to do to
it before I sell it.
Speaker 1: In the kitchen, you.
Speaker 3: Can get into this house without not yeah about yeah condo,
Yeah you don't need that.
Speaker 1: Yeah good, Yeah, that's a relief. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So hopefully everything keeps going the way it's going. You know,
there's a lot of stuff that could happen along the way.
But well, how do you feel? Did you have any
You know, you and I are so different this way.
I have anxiety.
Speaker 3: You don't, so I'm anxiety if others, Yeah, but you have,
but I have like just every day like free floating, like,
oh my god, I made a huge mistake. Did you
have any like Okay, I got the house? Oh, shit,
I got the house.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, there was a little bit of that, but
then I thought about the big picture, and it's like, well,
as to what's the alternative stay in this rental where
I'm wasting money And it's actually more than what my
monthly payment would be in this new house, So it
makes financial to get out and buy a place, you know.
So so I felt good about that. You know, I
feel good about that.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: Of course, it's like, oh my god, I'm going to
own a house, and it's you know, it's going to
be my first really like buying a house on my own,
you know. I mean I owned the condo, but that
was so long ago, and like, you know, it's not
as in the kind of small you know, it's kind
of manageable, but you know, but I mean Suzanne lives
there now, Like she's got people like if I need
a landscape or if I need this that she's got.
She just moved in, so she knows like what the
you know, the the cable company is and what the
Wi Fi company, you know. So I have her to
help me, which is nice.
Speaker 1: That's nice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I got a lot of people that live
out there in that area that I know of too,
which is nice. So it feels it feels good, like
it feels like I'm doing the right thing.
Speaker 3: So when you have to give thirty days on your
yeah rental?
Speaker 1: Now, yeah, so what's going to be when are you
going to put that?
Speaker 2: I'm going to put that in just to make sure
everything is going smoothly, probably next week, oh you are. Yeah,
I'm gonna let them know.
Speaker 1: But but what if something goes wrong with us? Or
shouldn't you wait, I'm gonna that's the thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I'm gonna they're They've I told them
I would be very upfront with them when I bought
a place. They've been letting me go from month to
months anyway. So but you still have to give thirty days. Yeah,
I'm going to give them.
Speaker 3: Either one to give them like July first, right, because
then no, what if escrow closes July thirty first, I
guess you could feasibly move in August first.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm gonna, well, I gotta find out like
when am I going to move in? Like what is
that date? And then when I figure that out, I'm
going to let them know. But I'm also going to
let them know like Hey, I'm an escrow and anything
can happen and it can fall out, you know, and
I think they'll be fine with it, knowing them, so
I think it'll be okay.
Speaker 1: Why am I anxious for you?
Speaker 3: I'm like, but then there'll be those money because they
want to start saying it's rentable, yeah, which I can't do.
And I don't know, I mean I could. People can't
really come see it, can they? While you're there?
Speaker 1: I guess they can. Yeah, I'll be they'll be able
to show it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, your least favorite thing.
Speaker 2: I know. I'm back to that. Yeah, but that's okay.
And then Natali'll be loop leaving mid August, and then
Sunny I'll have to move him mid September. So there's
gonna be a lot of moving. So I'm already starting
like get rid of shit, going through closets and going
into the garage and getting you know, sitting the herd,
starting to get ready.
Speaker 1: To move again. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2: Even though it was like two years ago that we
moved into this rental, it seems like it was just
last summer.
Speaker 1: Doesn't seem that long ago. Yeah, So it's gonna be
a lot.
Speaker 3: Ah, all right, well, let me know how I can help.
I'll be flexible or whatever.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you need I'm not saying you will.
Speaker 3: But it is a lot of house so if you
need a house manager, like I could probably do that.
I mean just as in certain hours, okay, not well
we're recording. But if you want to just get you know,
give me like stuff to Okay, I can be like
your av to Sutton okay, and then we'll have a
really public like falling out right where or I'll have
to promise not to.
Speaker 1: Reveal your secret. Right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'll get like you know, I'll go to
dinner at Craigs and like I'll get the photographers will
be there and they'll be like, what happened with you.
Speaker 1: In the deal? We're not going to talk about it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but we're still doing our podcast like we're fine.
Speaker 1: That's all you need to know. I could use an AVV, yeah,
ground great, wouldn't that be? Oh my god?
Speaker 3: So so you'll totally relate to this. I was sick,
so I had a cold even like the last time
we were here, and it was such a mild cold.
I was like, oh my god, this is no kind
of cold at all. This is like I got a
little congested. So Sadie had the cold, then she didn't
she I think she did stay home from school like
one day. And then I got it and I was like,
oh this is fun, no problem. Oh as you would
say I was congested, but I never and I was
really tired one day, but I never felt.
Speaker 1: Like no fever.
Speaker 3: I was never like, oh this could be the flu.
Nothing nothing that bad. This is like a mild summer cold,
like thank you, right, thank you God.
Speaker 1: For giving me this.
Speaker 3: And then I was but you know, I always have
that inkling where I'm like, they never really stayed like
I always end up with a shitty cough, but it
wasn't going into my lungs. I was like, you know what,
I'm okay. And then when I came in here a
week ago, I think I'd already had it for a while,
like I was suggested. I I was fine, yeah, no cough,
nothing like crazy. Then it just started doing its thing,
and it was I just felt very congested, but not
even that bad, like not like, oh my god, I
have a sinus infection, which has happened to me many times.
But then I just start getting a cough and you know,
I can't like right now, I even hold on, so
I get this really bad cough and I'm like, this
is so stupid.
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be.
Speaker 3: This way, Like why is my body like it just
wants to because you know what it is. It's not
even like a bronchitis. It's like I get a post
nasal drip right from the congestion. Yeah, and then it
irritates I think I've just had it since I was
much younger, where I just easily get my airway right aggravated,
and then I cannot stop coughing, and I'm like this
is ridiculous.
Speaker 1: So then I'm like I got to go to urgent care.
Speaker 3: I think I have to go to urgent care just
because this is just not going away fast enough right now,
it's been like a week and a half, like I
had it. Then it turns into this. I got to
tell you this, genius. This is all not to complain
about being sick, but to tell you that I was
all set. This was on Sunday. I was like, I'm
just going to go to urgent care. It's easy, but
you don't do the telehealth urgent care well. So that
then I was like and I'll tell you why. I'll
tell you why. I normally don't because it seems like
a kshaw. It's like I then I have to figure out,
like what my account is, and because there's five people
in our family and we're all on the same insurance,
it's always like are you Jonathan right, and I go no.
Speaker 1: I'm not Jonathan. Then they go, oh, well you don't
have an account, and I'm like, yes, I do. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Then it sends you to So then while I'm sick
and constantly coughing, I'm like, fuck, I'm gonna do this.
Telehealth is free? Why am I not taking advantage of it?
So I call the number for telehealth for like helping,
you know, the assisting number, and I get through to
someone right away.
Speaker 1: She's like, okay, we need to make you.
Speaker 3: I can see that you have an account, but okay,
here's your username.
Speaker 1: I don't have this saved anywhere, or maybe I do.
Speaker 3: But I'm like, I'm sick. So I was getting so aggravated.
Don't worry not. I wasn't being a Karen. But she
was like okay.
Speaker 1: She was so helpful.
Speaker 3: She was like, here's your username and then here's your password,
and it was clearly not something that I made up myself.
It was like some rando like I signed in once, yes,
and you're like, okay, I'll take it in a sick panic,
and then it was just like use this password. Well
now it's not taking any passwords. So she gives me
all the info. It's not logging me in, you know,
you know, of course, of course, And I'm like, this
is not what part of me was like, I should
just hang up and go to urgent care. But then
I'm like, well, now I've got time invested. What is
that sunken sunken cost or whatever? Right, So I'm like no,
I'm gonna see this bitch through.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So then she's like, okay, I think you tried to
use your email address and not the user name I
just gave you.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, you're right, so I did.
Speaker 3: So I finally I get in there and then I
have to update all my medical information. Well they always
do that.
Speaker 1: And they do do that, oh my god, no matter.
Speaker 3: What's the date of your life last period? And I'm
like I literally wrote like twenty sixteen and they're like
we need a month and day and I'm like, fuck
off off already like, I don't know, I don't remember.
Speaker 1: Am I supposed to remember?
Speaker 3: I'm going to be sixty right, yeah, very soon.
Speaker 1: I haven't had a period since I was.
Speaker 3: Like forty eight, for forty nine, so twenty sixteen is
actually wishful thinking.
Speaker 1: It's been a while.
Speaker 3: But you have to do that, and then it's like, okay,
even though I said I hadn't had a period since
twenty sixteen, They're like, but are you breastfeeding? No, I'm
not breastfeeding. Are you sure I'm positive? And then I'm
here for a cold. Then you have to put in
when did you have your last colonoscopy? When did you
have your last catogram? I'm not kidding. Do you keep
that shit on your calendar?
Speaker 1: Because I know no.
Speaker 3: I just put everything in as the same date, like
they're just going to think, Wow, this girl was really
into wellness this May. That's when I had my kolenoscopy.
That's when I had my mammogram, That's when I had
a PAP. Yeah, first, it's been recent, so anyway I
do all that, then I am Then The magical part though,
for anybody who has telehealth is once.
Speaker 1: You do all that, you just go, Okay, what do
you need I go on, now, you have a cough.
Speaker 3: Okay, get ready, your call's coming. And I'm like, oh shit,
that was quick, you know. And the lady calls me.
She's like, Hi, it's doctor you know Calanova whatever I'm in,
blah blah, where are you?
Speaker 1: I'm in California?
Speaker 3: Okay, great, I have license for well you better because
I just think right anyway. So then I said, yeah,
I have this really bad cough and I talk for
a living, so I got to get rid of it.
And she's like, okay, goes through a little bit of
the symptoms. I'm like, it's it's not even that bad.
It's probably not COVID. It's definitely not the flu. It
wasn't that bad. But I can't stop coughing. Normally, I
get like an antibiotic this, and she goes, yeah, it
sounds like you have a sinus infection.
Speaker 1: I go, okay, can you give me steroids?
Speaker 3: Like yes, medrol, Yeah, that usually really helps me stop coughing.
She's like, oh no, because some weird thing where steroids
can cause a blood clot and they don't prescribe them
through telehealth anymore.
Speaker 2: What I know just steroids prescribed to me tell a
heal last time I was sick.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay.
Speaker 3: So yeah, so I'm like, okay, I mean I didn't
really care that much. I was I'm not like, oh
my god, I'm trying to get steroids, like nobody wants
to be on steroids.
Speaker 1: I was like, okay.
Speaker 3: So then she goes, I'm going to give you antibiotic
because it sounds like give an infection. I'm going to
give you this nose spray. I'm going to give you
cough medicine, which I love. They're they're like bends. I
don't know that little pearls.
Speaker 1: You have, little beads. I think those work really well.
Yeah they do.
Speaker 3: So then and then she's like, I'm gonna give you
some steroids. I'm like, she goes, it's just it doesn't
you don't sound good, right, I go okay. So then
she prescribes me prednizone twenty milligram tablets twice.
Speaker 1: A day for three days. Right, okay.
Speaker 3: Well, by the way, because I was starting to feel
I was just having a little bit of trouble sleeping
and I so I start googling it on my phone
in the middle of the night and I'm like bitch,
this is way more. This is a way higher dose
than the metroal pack. Like, I don't understand the metroal
pack comes out, it's the metroal pack is like this,
It's twenty four milligrams day one, right, then it's twenty
day two, then it's sixteen day three, and then it
goes down to Zeroh, well this is forty day one.
Speaker 1: So I was like, what's the You're all, oh, I
can't prescribe that anymore. That's crazy. And now she's like,
now I'm.
Speaker 3: Gonna prescribe you, like double the dose he did the
metro pack. I was like, no, wonder, I'm feeling a
little Yeah, I can affect you, Lee, It's not it's
not jittery.
Speaker 1: It's like a little too alert.
Speaker 3: Like how I imagine people that I've never taken a stimulant,
but how I imagine like ADHD meds.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, just like a little too locked in.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I'm not going to take the last pill
because I think I'm fine.
Speaker 1: Now, yeah, you sound fine.
Speaker 3: It was it is kind of magic. Sunday, I'm just
coughing my lungs out. I can't, I can barely function.
I get the meds that day. By yesterday I was
I was better, and by today I woke up and
I'm like, at all right.
Speaker 1: So isn't it's so nice? Though?
Speaker 2: Why don't you have the account set up for that
virtual medical appointment?
Speaker 1: Like it?
Speaker 2: It makes you life so much easier because then Natalia
gets sick and then she does the telehealth. You know,
it just makes your life so much easier because I
got it set up up and that that was that.
Ever since I don't know when I did it, how
I did it. I got the password in my phone
so it logs in, no problem, mo. And it's Once
you get that going, it's a game changer. No more
going to the to the urgent care.
Speaker 1: And it's free.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, it's covered, which thank god it should be
because I pay so much money for my premium.
Speaker 1: It should get some benefits.
Speaker 3: Yes, I won't have to go in unless it's for UTI,
because then you got to. Yeah, unless you have to, yes,
give it letter sounds. I get those, Yeah right exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well good now this just reminded me of something.
Oh we never did our ad. We should do our ad.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we should talk about hero hero.
Speaker 2: You know how much we love our Hero Breads, and
I got their noodles, which I love.
Speaker 1: I know you keep talking about the noodles.
Speaker 2: The noodles are great, and they have so many different
baked goods. They have the croissant, they have tortillas, they
have the buns for burgers, bagels, and we love how
they They taste delicious and you'd never know that it's
a zero uh dash five grams of net carbs and
eleven to thirty two grams of fiber from the texture,
you can't tell.
Speaker 1: And all the proteins.
Speaker 3: So for all of the GLP one girlies, you know
you can get nineteen grams of protein in one of
their breakfast bagels.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's nice, do we get it?
Speaker 2: So Hero Bread is offering ten percent off your order
if you go to hero dot co and use the
code fcl at checkout. That's f col at h e
r O dot c O. So check them out.
Speaker 1: Yeah zero. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So I have had a week. I think I texted
you that I've lived a year.
Speaker 1: That was last week. In a week it was.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, because last week I talked about their didn't
I didn't talk about their high school graduation because that
just happened. Yeah, high school graduation was Thursday. Then Elbe's
college graduation was Saturday.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. The last thing I talked to.
Speaker 3: About was the music show, which I think had just happened,
our big music show, which I have a little by
the way, so I do want to apologize for last
week's Patreon yea. And I came home and texted you,
and I was like, I don't feel great about this,
and you took it basically what it was so that
people aren't like, oh my god, we're missing this crazy,
juicy story. It was basically me kind of complaining about
some stuff having to do at the kids' school. But
when I came home and thought about it, I was like,
you know what, I want to leave, like, it was
a great school for them. Yeah, as I was saying
last week, I have so many amazing memories and it
was very, very very good for them mentally. Xander fully
arrived at that school. Sadie kind of thrived at that school.
She did the best that Sadie could do right given
her you know, low battery, her very low social battery.
The girl made it through through school. I told her
I was having I was remembering that middle school. This
girl was begging.
Speaker 1: Me to be homeschooled.
Speaker 3: Remember, and her mental health was bad at that time.
That's when we put her on meds. That was middle school,
and you know what, she started feeling a little bit better.
Speaker 1: From the meds.
Speaker 3: And then she made a couple of friends.
Speaker 1: Remember way back when I was like, Sadie's going to
build a bear.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Remember I was furtively taking pictures of her
across them all with some friends. I'm like, she's got friends.
And one of those girls is still her friend to
this day. They see each other all the time. Yeah.
But the point is, even at that time, she was like,
I don't want to be going to If she could
have homeschooled, she would have. Yeah, But I was like,
ain't nobody got time to be homeschooling you.
Speaker 1: Plus the fact that like.
Speaker 3: This is never going to go away if I just
let you avoid, you know, I do think you need
to go to school. And it wasn't bad enough that
like she needed to go to some special school for
just one.
Speaker 1: On one help.
Speaker 3: It was like, right, always kind of in the middle. Right,
So anyway, the school that they went to was so
good for like it.
Speaker 2: Was remember when they Yeah, when they went there, how
much they're like they they came alive, like they started thriving,
their social life got better, their academics, you know, they
liked their classes like their teachers, which was really nice.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: I would say year one was a bit of a struggle,
but by tenth grade they were both doing great, right,
and that's when Xander, that's when Lyla Crocodile moved over,
and then they both have like friends groups. Yeah, there's
been some ups and downs, but all in all, like
Sadie's math teacher was just this magical guy. Remember when
I read that letter about that, I'd emailed the math
teacher because he thought Sadie wasn't paying attention. And then
he was so like, oh my god, I'm so sorry. Okay,
so we had all those great things happen.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Also her counselor was amazing. So given all of the
good things, I was like, I don't need to shit
on the things that I don't like on my way out,
you know, on the way out the door.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I get that.
Speaker 3: I get it, and I know that I know that
probably none of the people from the school are going
to listen, but you never know, because we've we've thought
that before and then you get that call, right, And
I was like, I don't need to get that call, yeah,
and I need to like look back with gratitude and
I'm sorry for the people. There's a few things that
need to be fixed, right, and other people will fix it,
I guess, yeah, if they have a problem.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get it. I understand why you did it. It
wasn't worth it. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So now I'm so glad because because that was before graduation, right,
So this, I mean, it was just a very intense week.
There's another thing that maybe I can talk about in
a future Patreon, I'll ask you about this off the air.
But high school graduation was last thursday, so beautiful. Yeah,
Xander got recognized for he got like this overall award,
which it and it's not this like everybody gets a trophy.
They were doing academic achievement awards. So there was one
for science, there was one for two for science, math, English,
something else. And then Xander got basically like overall achievement
for being forgetting amazing grades. You know, he got They
both Sadie and Xander got a gold Cord.
Speaker 1: Which is like the high honors. Oh, I know.
Speaker 3: And then and then Xander got awarded this like not
just like school spirit, but like this kid had all this,
all the great grades, but also you know the speech
and debate and the being and he did all the
plays and he did He's like the most involved kid
with also good grades.
Speaker 1: And it was really that's amazing.
Speaker 3: Everybody cheered for him, and then I was surprised. I
was the saddest to say goodbye to Well the music teacher.
For one, I like, I'm obsessed, yeah, But then I
realized how much I love her counselor, and all of
a sudden, I just got this like be in my bond.
I was like, I got to find her counselor. I
got to find her counselor, and I'm like looking around
as anybody seen her. Then I go into back into
the big auditorium where we'd been and I find her
and I was like.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna miss you most of all. And then she
started crying, and then I started crying. And I hadn't
been emotional.
Speaker 3: I didn't cry, and she had year during any of
the graduation ceremony.
Speaker 1: I was just like, this is fun.
Speaker 3: I'm sitting next to a while Crocodile's mom she's crying
because her kids had such an amazing experience. I'm not crying.
I see the counselor and I'm like, we never could
have gotten Sadie through high school without you.
Speaker 1: And she was crying and she was like, I love
Sadie so much. I love both your kids so much,
and she's such a hard worker. And then I was
just like the water works.
Speaker 2: H Such an emotional thing though, you know, especially when
somebody's touched your child's life like that, you know, there's
nothing better, you know. I mean, I remember my kids
had a special teacher in their life in high school
that I just loved. Natalia had this government teacher that
she loved, like she couldn't get like she was like,
oh my alstad know I'm interested in, like, you know,
the history of the government. And so when you see them,
you have to like go and thank them. And it's
an emotional thing. It's like my kid like just finally
graduated after all the fucking headaches, you know, all the
ups and downs, and here's the person that really made
a difference in their life that they're not going to forget,
and you like go and thank them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it makes you cry. It's really touching. I feel like.
Speaker 3: One thing that I realized is that all kids, like
your kids, had a lot of struggles and a lot
of things that you had to go to the counselor
go to this person talking to epas my kids, the
IPA is same with mine.
Speaker 1: And you know, you look back and you go.
Speaker 3: Probably everybody's kids had their stuff, right, So these counselors
are dealing with almost every Because we had to go
to basically the counselor's office for something that's like kind
of the story for another day.
Speaker 1: But the person.
Speaker 3: The other parent that we were with, like knew her
way around that office, you know what I mean. And
I was like, she's we've never been here before for
like a meeting. This person is like, is there a
second home?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Exactly.
Speaker 2: I mean I've been there many times for all those meetings. Yeah,
all those meetings I had.
Speaker 1: To go through.
Speaker 2: And then when COVID hit, it was all on FaceTime
those meetings, you know, and I remember getting mad at
some of the teachers, like what's.
Speaker 1: With all that? You know, like just getting pissed off.
Speaker 2: It's like, you know, and you just have to bite
your tongue because I learned my lesson in elementary school,
not to like rem them out, but you know, just
like there's those asshole teachers that just like you want
to say something to you, But then those are far
and few between compared to the teachers that were so
awesome that my kids loved both of them.
Speaker 3: Oh, you know, we've gotten in trouble for talking shit
about teachers, but I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: Here's the problem.
Speaker 3: A good teacher makes your life so much easier and
it is so nice. A terrible teacher can like ruin
your experience.
Speaker 2: I remember Zippity DooDah, the math teacher that say, the
worst teacher I've ever ever encountered.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like how do these people keep their jobs?
Speaker 3: And then like they don't want to complain about it,
and people are like, oh, don't talk shit about teachers.
It's like, fuck off, right, the teacher is horrible, right?
Why should we not be able.
Speaker 1: To talk about that?
Speaker 3: Is there some kind of crazy reverence for like if
you don't if you can't do your job, well, don't
do it, go retire?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: And I had just a couple that might it was
bad for my kids. It would like it would ruin
their confidence. You know, they didn't want it. They've dreaded
going to that class. They didn't want to. They put
their head in their stand, they didn't want to do
their homework to that class because they didn't understand it,
you know, And that's that's pretty damaging too. But then
there's the on the flip side, there's the teachers that
you'll never forget, you know.
Speaker 3: And I do think that at this latest, at this
high school, there are so there were so many good ones.
Speaker 1: Yes, at that school.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I really can't think of any bad ones we had, yeah,
I mean, or that we personally experienced. I think my
kids liked almost every single one of their teachers. Yeah,
and some of them like really liked right right, Like
they follow each other on social media that have left
the school, right Yeah. So yeah, So I was filled
with a lot of gratitude.
Speaker 1: On Saturday, Elbie graduated UCLA. You know, it's so funny.
Speaker 2: I was thinking about Elbe because yesterday when I left Oregon,
I saw all the it was their day of graduation
at University Oregon. So I saw all these kids with
their cap and gowns, and I was like, wait a minute,
I think Elbie's graduating this weekend.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So the pain in the butt with Elbe's graduation,
which I'm sure that this is relatable for a lot
of parents of college graduates. What you don't realize is
that college is a whole.
Speaker 1: You have nothing to do with it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, I would never recognize the name of a
single professor that Elbi had except when she was at
Pearce and then I heard about a couple teachers because
it's a much smaller school.
Speaker 1: Yeah, UCLA, I know nothing about it.
Speaker 3: I've met her roommates, but like, honestly couldn't pick most
of them out of Alna. I mean, I know one
of her roommates, the one she shares a room with better. Yeah,
but like when do I have occasion to see They're
not coming over to our house.
Speaker 1: They're at college exactly.
Speaker 3: So anyway, I could not believe how disconnected, like how
much I kind of didn't care, And I know that
sounds bad.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing.
Speaker 3: So the graduation, there's going to be six hundred kids
because they it's a departmental graduation, so it's the sociology
department that's mixed with like, no, it's mostly sociology. Six
hundred kids.
Speaker 1: Wow, Well, you got to figure.
Speaker 3: I think there's like twenty five thousand at the school
or thirty. I mean there's a shit ton of kids
at that school. Okay, starts at nine am. The ticket
everything about it was a pain in the ass. LB
had to transfer us tickets from her account. Then somehow
I couldn't get the tickets even though I'd accepted the transfer.
They don't just automatically. Suddenly you have to make an account. Oh,
the making of the account. I have a UCLA account,
but apparently it was a different it's the wrong account.
I went to some account that I don't have, so
then I have to make and I'm and Elbie's like
I don't know. I mean they show that they're transferred,
right then I get on this account.
Speaker 2: It was Sadie and Xander able to go to.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we all had to go. Okay. First of all, Elbe.
Speaker 3: Was kind of thinking she wasn't going to go to
sadiean Xander's because she had something to do. And I
was like, uh no, yeah, You're going to go to
Sadie and Xander's high school graduation, Like right right. I
don't normally put my foot down, but like I said
to Xander. I go, Elbie's got this thing, this big
thing for her tours where it's called a senior tour
where she does a tour and everybody comes and watches her.
It's like this cute thing, right, Okay, well She's done
a lot of cute things right right.
Speaker 1: And Xander's like, well, you know what, it would kind
of hurt my feelings if she didn't come.
Speaker 3: And then I said to Elbe. I was like, Elbe,
you have to come. And then she was like, oh, okay,
but blah blah blah. And I said, listen, we don't
really have family, right, I go, you're it exactly. I go,
I'm not inviting like Uncle Mikey and out Rocky the
only nights they're not going to be that interested.
Speaker 1: I said.
Speaker 3: In a high school graduation, we just we don't got
it like that.
Speaker 1: We don't go to each other's right, kids. Is graduation.
Speaker 3: All these people are going to be there with all
their freaking grandparents and like their cheering section, and they're
gonna which happened, and they're going to like make signs
of their kid's face and people are going to pull
them up. I go, it's going to be me and dad, Yes,
sitting there. True, you're showing up. And she was like, okay,
I got it. Yeah, yeah, she showed up.
Speaker 1: Good point. She skipped her thing. She came. So I'm like, well, we.
Speaker 3: Can't not go to Elbe's cult, right, you can't be tired.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So then I'm like okay. So so it's nine am.
So I look at the tickets and they're like, be
there an hour early because it's going to be like
very difficult to find parking.
Speaker 2: I got it.
Speaker 3: You got a line up, And I'm like, no, I'm
not doing that. First of all, in my mind, I
go Elbe's last name starts with T and there's six
hundred kids. Yes, and you got to sit through some
really boring speeches because here's the thing, you don't know
these fucking kids, right, So they've chosen like these kids
from the Sociolo out of thousands of kids, Like this
kid is going to give a speech, yes, right, you
know it's going to be hella boring. Yeah, there was
no funny speeches. It's not a movie.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like like, let it I would I agree with that.
Speaker 2: Let it die, let everybody get inside, let it die down,
let it kind of start shee's and the tea's get
there and then once every you know, then when it's
once it starts.
Speaker 3: It's going to be died down. Then you can get parked. Yeah,
that's what I was thinking.
Speaker 1: That was my plan. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So then I'm like, you know what, here's my other brainstorm.
We're not going to bother trying to park in like
the main lot because Elb's like, mom, it's going to
be crazy. There's not going to be a spot in there.
I was like, Okay, here's what going to do. We're
going to drive to like a far away lot in
Westwood Park the car. Then we're going to uber to
the ceremony. Okay, that was our That was my grand plan.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So that it worked, except that the uber couldn't figure
out where that we couldn't figure out. It's very byzantine.
Oh boy, maze, So we have to get dropped off
in one kind of spot. But then it was sort
of a far walk. It's boiling hot out already nine am.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Anyway, we we finally sit and we're there on time.
Like then they start and I was like, oh, kill me.
So it was two hours of boring ass speeches. There
was some lady gave the keynote speech about some waste
company anti waste company she'd invented. Even afterwards, Elbie was
texting me. She was like, dude, this is so fucking boring.
She goes, it's all about her. It's all about like
her accomplishments, Like why don't just pass out the resume
her resume exactly and let me peruse it during the ceremony.
Speaker 1: I'll be the judge you accomplished it. And Sadie and.
Speaker 3: I were both like, we are so hot. I go
let's bail and let's go find a spot in the shade. Yeah,
oh wait, that's not even We found a spot to
sit and we could actually see better, and we just
both played games on our phones until they started calling
the names good ideas. Then I find out they're not
calling it in alphabetical order. So at first I'm like, oh, okay, good,
maybe she'll get called early. No, she got there late herself,
so she was one of the last rows O people.
So now I'm like, we got to sit through six
hundred Oh.
Speaker 1: My god, Oh my god. I was dying of boredom.
I was like, well, not so terrible.
Speaker 2: It was so hot this week last weekend, and I
left on Sunday night, and I was like, oh God, Eugene, Oregon,
It's going to be beautiful and nice and breezy and cool.
You know, get there, and son, he's like, Mom, just
to warn you, it's the hottest day of the year
since I've ever been here.
Speaker 1: It was worse than LA It was so hot what
And I.
Speaker 2: Was in his apartment cleaning, sweating my ass off. All
we had was the window open with a breeze coming through,
and I was dying.
Speaker 1: He doesn't have AC.
Speaker 2: He had AC, but it doesn't He's like, I could
put it on and close the doors. He's honestly, it's
like it doesn't do much. It doesn't cool it down right.
And I barely ever needed to use it though this
whole time since I've been here. But yeah, it was
like the hottest day of the year in Eugene this
last weekend. So I can't even imagine sitting outside at
UCLA listening to six hundred names being called.
Speaker 3: I was, but I was kind of feeling bad. Like
when you see this in the movies. Anytime you see
a movie about a college graduation, it seems so monumental,
you know, but it was very anti climatic because Elpie's
only been there two.
Speaker 1: Years when it flew by, Yeah, it did fly.
Speaker 3: She never really even have the college experience because she
was home all the time.
Speaker 1: But even if she had, I don't know.
Speaker 3: Then I was talking to this friend of mine who's like, yeah, well,
next year when her daughter graduates, you know this person's
going to fly in. Her brother and sister in law
are going to fly and these people.
Speaker 1: Are going to fly in.
Speaker 3: I was like, I can't even imagine. I didn't even tell.
Speaker 1: I didn't even.
Speaker 3: Tell my brother and sister in law where it was
or when it was.
Speaker 1: They'd never asked, right.
Speaker 3: It's like and then I was so grateful for that
because I was like, what if they dragged them there
with their kids?
Speaker 1: Yeah, my God, to sit through that, they would have
been complaining the whole time.
Speaker 3: Afterwards, Sadie wasn't feeling great, Elbie was starving. Bob had
been alone at this point for four hours. Bob, that's right,
never been alone that long before. Oh, so I'd given
him this big bone. By the way, he's been doing
really great. He has stayed alone. He stayed alone the
night of Sadie and Xander's graduation. He did good, he
did not he had not destroy stuff, but he does
get anxious, and then he was upset with us.
Speaker 1: By the time. I was like, I'm fine that we've
left him alone for four hours.
Speaker 3: I don't want it to be like six hours, right, right, Honestly,
I don't want to like go out for We were
going to a party that night anyway, So I was like, yeah,
could we just go home?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Exactly. So I went home. Elbe followed me.
Speaker 3: Oh. Then she was in a bad mood because she
was tired and hot and hungry. Right, I'm like, well,
nobody told you.
Speaker 1: Not to eat breakfast.
Speaker 3: You're a college graduate now, I hate shit together, eat
a bowl of cereal.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So I was like, well, I'm going home.
Speaker 3: We stop and we get Sadie coffee because she's not
feeling good and caffeine is the only thing that can
fix it. Yeah, and then I go home and then
Elbe comes home, and then she and Xander go to Chili's.
Speaker 1: Oh that's that's nice. I'm like, good, good, good. When
did Elby? Did you move LB out?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: So, oh my god, this is another thing. So Elbe's
lease is not up until September one. Okay, okay, because
it was a year lease, right that they moved in
September ninth, because she has a similar schedule to Sunny.
And I was like, okay, but what's going to happen
when you graduate school? And she was like, oh, I
can just find a subletter. Do you think she's posted
anything about subletting it. I don't know how to do it.
I'm like, it's not my apartment, it's your apartment. You
need to find a sublet ye, And then all the
listeners are going to be like, well, if she can't
find a subletter because she waited too long, then you're
going to have to make her pay. Well, no, I'm
not going to have to make her pay because she's
making minimum wage at the fricking restaurant. She doesn't have
eleven hundred dollars a month to pay for her apartment.
So I'm hoping she at least gets the I don't know,
it's if it's going to happen by July first. If
I have to pay July rent, I mean I threatened it. Yeah,
I'm like, well you can help.
Speaker 1: Pay for it, and she's like, I'm so sorry. I'm
going to do it. I'm going to do it. But
did she move her stuff out? Her clothes?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 3: She all her stuff is still there because she doesn't
she doesn't need to move.
Speaker 1: She's not in a rut. Okay.
Speaker 3: In her defense, Finals week is right before graduation. She
was doing a makeup final. Every day she had either
work or a final.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: You know what you can do is you can do
you can go on Facebook and get and look at like,
you know, other there's there's like there's Facebook pages for
people that are looking to sublet in UCLA, so that
that's kind of like, yeah, the way to go.
Speaker 3: But she also says there's boards, There's all these things
that are online Internet boards where she just goes on
there's a there's a housing snapchat where people.
Speaker 1: Go to home for it.
Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, yeah, she can do that part. Yeah,
but I'm just saying she'd have to do it right now.
Somebody would be needing a place.
Speaker 1: In two weeks, right right, Yeah.
Speaker 3: And then if that doesn't happen, then I'm like, please
at least try for augusta. Yeah, even though I don't
know if somebody wants to, but just for one month maybe.
Speaker 1: You never know. I mean, you never know, there's all
these kids coming and going, and.
Speaker 3: I feel kind of bad because her bedroom mate is staying. Yeah,
so that's going to be a little awkward for her
to have, like a new person sleeping in her bedroom.
Speaker 1: Right. On the other hand, Well, then what's the alternate?
Yea and Pet?
Speaker 3: Then you guys can all the three that are left
can split Elbie's rent. Yeah, like if you want the plate,
if you want the bedroom to yourself, right, you know
what I mean. Yeah, it's a good idea, but Elbe
doesn't feel like she can say.
Speaker 1: That, right. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So wow, Well she's done, which is great.
Speaker 1: It's a load off, you know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she'll be living back at home, Xandra move out
and then the other thing and then I'll stop talking
and you can talk all the frienday show.
Speaker 1: I just feel like I've had so much I know
now you did. Yeah, so I'm running on fumes though. Yeah?
Is that so?
Speaker 3: Then, Sadie, I think this is going to be a
relatable story to a lot of parents. I love Sadie
so much. I shouldn't have to say it like that,
I really do.
Speaker 1: I love this girl, do you?
Speaker 3: Sometimes though, I'm like, Okay, so she's she's signed up
for Pierce College, so you have to do it is
a little bit hard, okay, in her defense, you have
to go to this, you have to sign up for
this overall community college system. There's a lot of accounts
you need. Okay, So you go on this one thing
it's called like open c C College. You get an
account on that. They got to verify your identification. You
you got to get like your DMV wall. Like there's
all these hard things that she's like, Mom, it won't
take it won't.
Speaker 1: It's not working. Right.
Speaker 3: I have her sitting next to me on the bed.
I'm trying to help her. I'm not good at this
stuff either, though, Like son, what about John, No, he's
not great with this stuff either. Also, it always feels
like John's starting in the middle of a conversation. Yeah,
like I got to go all the way back, right,
So here's what's going on, right, So I just do it,
you know, So I just let I just keep her company.
And then I'm like, oh that sucks, right, you know,
try again. Yeah, she's like getting frustrated.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 3: So she finally it took like a day and then
the DMV verified her and then she could move forward
and do this thing.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 3: Then she gets an account, then she applies for peerce college.
Then she doesn't get any kind of like confirmation email
or welcome to the school or anything, and I'm like, well,
that's weird.
Speaker 1: Then I start getting mad at her. Oh, because.
Speaker 3: There's a thing called the Promise Program in California, which
is community college is free, but you have to sign
up for this program. It's free if you're going straight
from high school into a community college and you've not
been a full time college student before. Okay, so you
can't like go have a job for a year and
then come back. You have to go straight that year. Okay,
but it's free, right, it's kind of expensive otherwise. Yeah, okay,
So you can't sign up for this thing until you
have your peer school ID. Every day I'm like, did
you get your school ID so we can you can
sign up for this thing. No?
Speaker 1: Not yet. Then it's now like two weeks. Okay.
Speaker 3: Then it's two weeks, and I'm like, there's no way
that you shouldn't have gotten this thing. And of course,
in my mind, I'm like, you did something wrong, But
in her.
Speaker 1: Mind, that's a dumb, dumb question.
Speaker 2: But she checked her trash and her junkholders.
Speaker 3: Yes, I literally made her sit next to me on
the bed. We went through all her emails, and I
got mad at her for having like thousands of junk emails,
Like don't you ever erase, like dump your emails. Okay,
So she's getting frustrated at me for being like this
has got to be here somewhere. I'm like, show me
everything with the word Pierce in it, show me everything
with open nothing's there. So then I email this friend
of ours and I'm like, what do we do? And
who works at Pierce? And she's like, go into the
virtual there's like a virtual help area. So she tries
that this is like last week the weight. It's like
she's twenty sixth in line. It never moves. So she's like, okay,
I don't. I mean, we're just gonna have to go
in in person. Yeah, long story short. We went in
person yesterday. We drive all the way to this school,
we wait in line, we go in. I have to
do all the talking right because she just doesn't articulate
problem as well.
Speaker 1: She can't, like she's like I applied. I let her try.
I let her start. You know, I don't cut her
off at the knees.
Speaker 3: She starts talking and they're just looking at her like
she's not speaking English. Yeah, and I'm like, okay, you
got to take over. Here's the situation. We have no college,
we have no school idea. You guys can't find it
now what right? So the lady's like, here, come in here,
and I go, Sadie, open your computer. I had her
bring your computer, you know what. She didn't bring her ID.
I was like, They're like, well you need ID. I
was like, Sadie, what adult doesn't take their wallet with
them when they go place?
Speaker 1: It Like, what, you're not sick? Yeah? Yeah, I'm frustrated. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well turns out that because she signed up for this
my wallet at the DMV, she had her ID.
Speaker 1: On her phone. Ah kind of genius. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So I'm like, okay, we're saved by that. Sit down,
open the computer. The lady starts looking at her thing
and she goes, you never actually applied for peers. You
got your application, you did the first thing, but you
see right here it says start a new application, you
entered some information. Then she's like, it's a little tricky.
You entered your information, but you didn't actually do an application.
Speaker 1: Right, Oh no, oh my gosh. All this time went by.
Speaker 3: It's been three weeks, right, So then I was like,
can we just do the application here so that we
make sure and the lady's like, yeah, go ahead. So
we sat down, we did her application, we got confirmed.
Speaker 1: My knife in my eye, those kind of things. Every
step though was like, oh my god, are you kidding? Yeah, yeah,
I know. Sonny like do his own? Did they? They
both did, so they seem to be.
Speaker 3: Thriving more than my kids because he just signed himself
up for Oregon Community College, right.
Speaker 1: Yes, he did everything. Yeah, yeah, I didn't do any
of it, and so did Natalia.
Speaker 2: Natalian's on top of it, Yeah, for sure. Yet I
don't they take care of all that stuff. Like That's
why I'm like, I don't know if they're what when
they're because they're they're on top of it.
Speaker 1: They and I have no reason to believe that they're not.
Speaker 2: And actually Natalia did tell me the other day I
forgot to say this that she got accepted early acceptance.
Speaker 1: To to she got TAG.
Speaker 3: Oh she did, yes, And I thought you told me
that she doesn't want to go there. No, she does,

SB anymore.
Speaker 1: She wants to do.
Speaker 2: She had this like one week of thinking about that,

to start her classes, then go abroad, yeah, and then
come back and finish.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's what she's that's her plan.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, I really, I know, And I haven't
seen her because she's been out of town at her
boyfriend's house in Lake Tahoe for the last week, so
I know, I know.
Speaker 1: So, yes, I'm very very happy about.
Speaker 2: Like sometimes I forget about each like if I'm dealing
with Sonny, I haven't called an Italian in a few days,
and like she called me while I was on the
plane again last night, like she's like, I just want
to let you know that we're leaving like Tahoe and
we're going to be coming home. And I was like, oh, yeah,
I forgot about you.
Speaker 3: Like yeah, while when she's doing something like skydiving or whatever,
you're I can't. I constantly it's like where are.
Speaker 1: Yes, where's your phone?
Speaker 2: Yeah I know, but yeah, well, like you know, you
kind of feel like now they're a little adult doing
their own thing. You know, he's you know, doing his
drive home. You know I couldn't. That's another thing, Like
I didn't want to go to sleep last night till
I knew they got to their hotel and they were
checked in, and it's like, you know, I'm waiting and
waiting like can you just tell me you got it?
And they're like they're looking for our confirmation and like,
oh god, oh so I just want to go to sleep,
and then yeah, so they got to their hotel fine,
and then they're up this morning driving back, but yeah,
I mean then you know, then there's the unpacking. But
the thing about the last day this is the these emails. Now,
because I'm an escrow all these emails, they're like like
three days went by and they're like my mortgage broker
was like, you should have gotten this email with E
documents to check off, you know, tasks, and I was like, well, what,
like no, and I'm like from who and it's like
wind Trust. So I'm like looking for can't find anything.
Look at my junk and it's all there. And then
there's another email from some other company and it's going
to my junk and now I'm like what the fuck?
Like now I'm missing all these emails. So then i'd
like catch up and like go through it. And then
on top of it, I do the E signature thing,
but it's not like a DOCU sign It's it's a
different sing.
Speaker 1: I know what you're talking about, different program, but.
Speaker 2: I do it and then it says no tasks pending
complete it everything's completed. And then I get a text
from him last night and he's like you still haven't
signed your E documents as I've got home, and I'm like, dude,
what and I go look, and I had to send
him a screenshot and he goes, oh, okay, I'm going
to talk to my it.
Speaker 1: It's a glitch on our side.
Speaker 2: And then he texted me this morning He's like, yeah,
you're right, we got everything, Like okay, but yeah, it's
like it's kind of nerve wracking, like what am I missing?
Speaker 1: All these emails going to my junk.
Speaker 3: And Escro is endless because it's like the financing part
is kind of separate from like Escro a little bit, right,
Like you're dealing with your bank, right, then you're also
dealing with Escro company.
Speaker 2: Yes, So there's all these different emails from people that
I've never gotten emails from, and I'm like, I don't
how do I supposed to know that I'm not I
don't know who you are, So how do I know
that you sent me an email?
